Welcome to the New Term

 Welcome to the New Term 2021! A new term with goals, research and explore . 

I would like to begin with this blog post which will contain a research about a person that I inspired. 

During Lockdown I was trying to find a good photographer because on of my hobbies is to take pictuures of places and the peoples.

In addition, the course that I want to study is Journalism. On this course I believe that I have to took some photos for some articles that I hope that I will write in the future.

The one of the most good photographer that I found was:

Ansel Adams


Ansel Adams was born in San Francisco, California on 20 of February. He is a photographer and environmentalist. All of his pictures are black and white at the parks in USA and at landscapes. He is one of the most important photographer in the 20 century.


One of his pictures :


Ansel Adams claims some quotes anout the photos. The quotes below are three of them that I like a lot:

“When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs. When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence.”

“You don't make a photograph just with a camera. You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen, the books you have read, the music you have heard, the people you have loved.”

“A great photograph is one that fully expresses what one feels, in the deepest sense, about what is being photographed.”

In addition, Ansel Adams wrote some books with the topic the photos. The names of three of his books are: 1. The Camera, 2. The Negative and 3. The Print.

Below, you can see a page of his books:

This is a link that you can see a video for Ansel Adams: https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=gvSXVFEFSfQ

These are some of my favorite pictures who he took:

Portlandart museum, 2020, Ansel Adams in Our Time, link

Yosemite Valley Bridge, Focus On: Ansel Adams, Picture's link

The reason that I admire Ansel's job is that he took very brilliant photos, and also, he knew how to make the colours, black and white look so good. Furthermore, I like how much he loved his job because, in my opinion is very important to do something that you like. If you do something that you like then, you will have better results of your goals. The most significant point of his career that I admire are the quotes who said! His quotes inspire me, because his words have feelings! I like his way of thinking!
